In Florida it was more like $768. I don’t even get that much on Social Security and I worked for it!
Some of yall don't know that SSDI monthly payments are really low - the 2021 average was $1358. Most beneficiaries can't even work to supplement that. Imagine having to survive on that little in a month. And then realize that politicians want to take even that pittance away 😡

We’re capping seniors’ out-of-pocket costs for prescription drugs at $2,000 a year. I wish I could say our Republican friends in Congress helped make this happen. I truly do. But the truth is, every single one of them voted against it. Every single one.

It is SICKENING how Republicans like Lindsey Graham, Mitt Romney, Rick Scott, Marco Rubio, Ron Johnson, Mitch McConnell and OTHERS have gone on record that they want to cut OUR Social Security. As someone on SSDI, it's my ONLY source of income. It's heartless & CRUEL!

🟥👇 Narrative that #Dems are worse on the economy than Repubs is just untrue. Researchers went back 100 years & found that the Dems are much better for the economy & the individual wealth of the smaller guy than the Rs. Quick comparison chart __ #nvvotes22 #LasVegas #Nevada

Yet so many of Trump's hardcore supporters are on some kind of assistance. When you say Social Security, their neurons don't connect it to the SSDI they collect. They think it's different. Or somehow Trump supporters are special? The way the Jan6 peeps think they are entitled.

Republican elected officials are suing to stop student debt relief for millions of working- and middle-class Americans. At the same time, Republicans in Congress are calling for a $3 trillion giveaway for Big Pharma, corporations, and the ultra-wealthy.

One Canadian killed by gun violence is one too many. That’s why we’ve banned 1,500 types of military-style assault firearms. And that’s why, today, we’ve introduced legislation to further strengthen gun control in Canada. Thread ⤵️

If you’re upset with how much you pay for gas, remember that 203 House Republicans voted against the Consumer Fuel Price Gouging Prevention Act.

When your Social Security is gone, when your daughter bleeds out from a miscarriage bcs of anti-abortion laws, when you can't marry who you love or get contraception, when Christian Nationalism takes over America remember you voted based on the price of gas in 2022 #FreshWords

The most important reason that I am voting blue is because I am not a free woman if I do not have control of my own body. And I’ll be damned if my daughter loses her rights, too.

Truer words have never been spoken. It needs improvement but we're getting there. Can't make it to the mountain top with corrupt Republicans continuing to tell us we're living life wrong. #VoteBlueForDemocracy #VoteBlueIn2022
